Thanks, Thomas. That did the trick.

In Ltk, you'd do this by creating a canvas-window item on the canvas, then packing your button into that. So the button is a child of a child of the canvas. I'm guessing you can achieve the same effect in Celtk by making a canvas-window in the kids of the canvas, and your button in its kids.

Hi all:
being too lazy for searching in the code of Celtk I wonder if there is a way to have a button as a kid of a canvas - same of for an entry widget ...
I figure that the kid would be configured differently compared to being a kid of a frame...
Anyone done that before?
Thx for any pointers...
Best wishes - Frank

Weird, right? Is this a Tk issue? A Cells issue? An issue arising out of the Lisp API to Tk? Follow the bouncing API....
meanwhile, elsewhere you asked about parent-x on rectangles. You must be using some retarded "free" Lisp IDE. :) parent-x is anttribute of widgets. rectangles are items. items are not widgets. items use coords.

Less obscurely and in case it helps to know how I sorted it out having forgotten about parent-x/y, I used the ACL "find definitions" dialog to look for definitions of parent-x and saw it was defined for widgets, then I used the class browser to confirm that widget was not in the item class precedence list. using 'quick find def' keychord I then bounced to the item source and was reminded of "coords".
